Itinerary : Tour to the museums of nazca
Home hosted for many years Dr. Maria Reiche Newman, today is a house museum where tourists can visit and observe personal objects, photographs, maps, plans, didactic models, this in turn will give you a much clearer idea of studies conducted by Dr. Reiche. The house museum is located at KM 421.3 of the Panamericana Su.

Our customers are picked up at the designated time from their hotel by our local guide. Afterwards we will star our tour with the visit to the Museum Antonini in Nazca, an archaeological museum that houses the ancient pieces of the Nazca Culture. Here we will be able to learn about the evolution of the Nazca Culture, and also see fine pieces of ceramics and textiles. The museum Antonini has on display a great collection of panpipes made of clay, as well as spectacular mummies and trophy heads from the Nazca era. Later on we will drive our private vehicle to the west of Nazca towards the lower section of the Nazca valley, where the ruins of Cahuachi are located. On the way we will pass a wonderful desert landscape and eventually we will reach the ruins of Cahuachi. In Cahuachi our local guide will show us the most important sectors of Cahuachi, such as the Great Pyramid, The Stepped Temple, and the many other sectors that constitute the main attractions in Cahuachi. Finally we will board our private vehicle again and we will drive further down towards the temples of Estaqueria, an interesting archaeological complex made up by an array of trunks. According to the archaeologists, Estaqueria was once a ceremonial temple of the Nazca people, and it is very likely that the trunks or wood found at the place once served as pillars of a huge roof. In addition to the temple, we will also see structures of ancient tombs that were ransacked by graverobbers long ago. At the end we will return to Nazca and will leave you at your hotel.
